The men installed the skimmers while wearing uniforms and baseball hats bearing what appears to be the logo for the National Cash Register Corp, which services the ATMs that were tampered with, Harasym said.

The men later returned to the stores to retrieve the data collected by the skimming devices, according to Harasym.

Police say they don’t believe NCR was involved in any wrongdoing or at fault. The company couldn’t immediately be reached for comment.

Anyone who used the ATMs should check their bank accounts for irregularities, Harasym said.

Earlier this week, Suffolk County National Bank said some of its customers had money stolen from their accounts after a skimming device was used at one of their branches. In August, skimmers were discovered in NEFCU ATMs at the credit union’s branches in New Hyde Park, Franklin Square and Wantagh, police said.

Police ask anyone with information regarding the scams to call Crime Stoppers at 800-244-TIPS. All calls will remain confidential.
